I’m reminded of Isaac Asimov’s Foundation Trilogy, and later Asimov interviews and writings, about how nuclear power plants will outlive the institutional knowledge of the populace to maintain the nuclear infrastructure, in turn making power plants into cult compounds where hearsay and taboos maintain the nuclear power grid after the last trained engineer dies off.
